A brutal attack shattered the quiet life of former car design icon Ian Cameron. The 74-year-old Briton was found murdered outside his luxurious Bavarian mansion.
Investigators believe the killing may have been linked to his prized car collection, as power cables for security cameras near the garage were severed.
A manhunt is underway for a tall male suspect last seen fleeing the scene on foot. Witnesses described him wearing a dark blue hoodie and carrying a red backpack.
Despite the targeted nature of the attack, police have assured the public there’s no indication of further danger to the community.
An early stint at Pininfarina in Turin, Italy, proved to be a fertile training ground for this designer. There, he contributed to the design of the iconic Lancia Monte Carlo. This experience served as a springboard for a successful tenure at BMW.
During his time there, he left his mark on legendary cars that continue to be coveted by enthusiasts. Among his contributions are the sleek and sporty 3 Series, a cornerstone of the brand, and the head-turning Z8 roadster.
The Z8, in particular, achieved a level of fame beyond the showroom, becoming James Bond’s vehicle of choice in “The World Is Not Enough.”
